The best of England in miniature. Did you see anything there from Shropshire? Oh, I recognise that White Horse in the last photo. That's from Wiltshire ;) Maybe the one from Westbury? Cos I have been there a couple of times. He he… The best of England in miniature.

Mr C wasn't interested in the latter so we didn't take a ride ;-) https://www.bekonscot.co.uk/miniature-railway/ https://www.bekonscot.co.uk/ride-on-railway/ My brother wasn't to keen on his railway set, much to the disappointment of my dad. Looking for info on the railway I found more info on the village ;-) https://www.bekonscot.co.uk/models-villages/ I would still love a more detailed on the model village :-) In addition to the miniature railway you can see in the pictures there was also a light railway.

I love miniatures anyway, ever since I was a child. Doll houses, children's tea sets and demitasse sets (ever since my great aunt brought some Nippon back from being stationed in Japan in WW2). I kept asking for a train set but never got one because I was told it was a "boy's toy." Got the same answer with a chemistry set. ??? Like we girls don't enjoy trains too? Or want to understand chemistry? lol. Maybe that's just what they told me because were afraid I'd blow up the house or drive them crazy with my train going everywhere, because I totally would have had train tracks and connecting trains all over the house - hehehe ;) The historical representation of the architecture here - amazing! I'm looking at their website again because I'm sorry to say that not living there, I don't recognize all the miniature depictions - I recognized the Ascot track right away, though, as will Mark when I show this to him later - that's awesome! I was reading where they put in some "events" in the models, too, like an escapee from the police station? Lol, that's hilarious! Hope that's not too close to the schools, though ;) All right, when you put me on your waiting list to visit post-COVID, can we go here? Huh, can we, huh? ;) Thank you for sharing this, I love it! xo Oh my gosh, I LOVE this! I love miniatures anyway, ever since I was a child.

I love model villages - we've visited them on the Isle of Wight, Dorset and the Cotswolds. The little buildings are so beautifully crafted. How beautiful and lovely to see the miniature buildings.
